Some Scars
Added 2024-04-27 17:17:17 +0000 UTCSeems that the other day, I ran across a wicked patch of poison ivy. Much to my chagrin, it has been such a pain in the ass. Albeit annoying, I do find some weird beauty in it. There’s a message to it, and for me, I look at it as a dedication to a craft. It’s a reflection of the grittiness I undergo to ensure the feeling is felt. I have hairy legs, a rash, bruises, scars, but maybe that’s why what I do carries such a heaviness.
I don’t believe in being a softy when it comes to film or art, and I really enjoy the pain I feel at the end of the day. Maybe I’m a masochist for it all, or maybe I’m some self-absorbed martyr on a mission to die for what I love. Either way, I can document this and realize it’s all part of the path.

Don‘t know, I never had contact to Poison Ivy. But what I read it seems so. All skin parts that had contact with the nettles are getting hot, you get little, water filled pustules and your body is reacting like you‘ve burned yourself. Like, I don‘t know if you have ever made the experience, you had contact with a fire jelly fish.

Though I haven‘t seen poison ivy in Germany I guess it was the next best fucking plant. So I guess I can feel with you a little. The last month you seem to be very busy to harm yourself in different kind of ways. Is this necesserary? Suffering from body pains is not the best way to get your mind in better conditions, damn! Greetings to Jim, he should serve you some tea and cookies and a little love to get you into fine feelings. Thinking of you both and, sure, of the piggies!
